ikiwiki is a wiki compiler. It converts a directory full of wiki pages
into html pages suitable for publishing on a website. Unlike a traditional
-wiki, ikiwiki does not have its own means of storing page history, its own
-markup language, or support for editing pages online.
+wiki, ikiwiki does not have its own means of storing page history or its own
+markup language. Instead it uses [[Subversion]] and [[MarkDown]].
-To use ikiwiki to set up a wiki, you will probably want to use it with a
-revision control system, such as [[Subversion]], for keeping track of past
-versions of pages. ikiwiki can run as a Subversion [[post-commit]] hook, so
-that each committed change to your wiki is immediatly compiled and
-published.

-might be useful if you're considering using this.
+* [[Setup]] has a tutorial for setting up ikiwki, and [[Usage]] documents the parameters and usage of the ikiwiki program.
-[[Subversion]] also offers a way to let others edit pages on your wiki.
-Just configure subversion to let appropriate users (or everyone) commit to
-the wiki's repository. There are some things you should keep in mind about
-[[Security]] when allowing the world to edit your ikiwiki.
+* [[TODO]] and [[bugs]] lists things that need to be added to ikiwiki before most people would consider it a full-fledged wiki.
-ikiwiki also supports files of any other type, including raw html, text,
-images, etc. These are not converted to wiki pages, they are just copied
-unchanged by ikiwiki as it builds your wiki. So you can check in an image,
-program, or other special file and link to it from your wiki pages.
-ikiwiki also supports making one page that is a [[SubPage]] of another.
+* [[Security]] lists potential security problems. ikiwiki is still being developed, and is being written with security as a priority, so don't expect things to stay in this list for long.
-[[Setup]] has a tutorial for setting up ikiwki.
+Ikiwiki is _not_ yet formally released. If you really have to have it: svn://svn.kitenet.net/ikiwiki/trunk
-[[TODO]] lists things that need to be added to ikiwiki before most people
-would consider it a full-fledged wiki.
